Enhance your Microsoft solution with timesheet management
A timesheet management solution powered by Microsoft and delivered by Rand Group provides a quick and easy way to submit detailed timesheets, track hours worked, and allocate time directly to projects or tasks to expedite project management and accounting. Once time is logged, it can be accounted for automatically by posting it to your general ledger.
Simplified time tracking using a single solution
Tracking and properly attributing time to projects is crucial for business success. However, managing your timesheets using spreadsheets is not only highly inefficient, it is risky and introduces inaccuracies that can crush your margins and over time, erode revenue. Users can easily enter and submit their timesheets with minimal time and effort. Managers are then instantly alerted to review and approve submitted timesheets. Then, your timesheet data automatically flows into your existing Dynamics 365 business applications. Additionally, project managers are able to customize the timesheet approval process to best suit their unique business needs.
Rand Group is your certified Microsoft partner to help you implement and tailor a powerful timesheet management solution that eliminates manual time tracking, connects approval processes, and improves forecasting and reporting processes. Our timesheet management solutions are complete with validation points and proper workflows to ensure that every hour worked is an hour billed.
